EXPLANATORY NOTE
American Coastal Insurance Corporation (formerly known as United Insurance Holdings Corp.) (the “Company”) is filing this amendment to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Amended Report”) for the three months ended March 31, 2023 originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 19, 2023 (the “Original Report”). The purpose of this Amended Report is to restate the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (the “First Quarter 2023 10-Q”). Except as described below, no other information included in the Original Report is being amended or updated by this Amendment and this Amendment does not purport to reflect any information or events subsequent to the Original Form 10-Q.
Restatement Background
The Company has identified certain errors related to the reporting of the discontinued operations for the previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as included in the Original Report, which errors had the effect of understating the net income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 by approximately $6.4 million. These errors were discovered in the course of preparing the Company’s interim financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023, and included errors in the Company’s accounting for income tax expense primarily relating to the deconsolidation of the Company’s former subsidiary, United Property & Casualty Insurance Company.
As a result, on August 17, 2023, the Company’s management determined that the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed financial statements as of and for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2023, should no longer be relied upon solely as a result of the above-described errors.
Restatement
This Amended Report includes restated unaudited interim financial information for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023.
This Amended Report also amends and restates the following items included in the Original Report as appropriate to reflect the restatement and revision of the relevant periods: Part I — Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation; Part I — Item 4. Controls and Procedures; Part II — Item 1A. Risk Factors and Part II — Item 6. Exhibits.
In accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company is also including with this Amended Report currently dated certifications of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (attached as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1, and 32.2).
Except as discussed above and as further described in the Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has not modified or updated the disclosures presented in this Amended Report. Accordingly, this Amended Report does not reflect events occurring after the Original Report or modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. Information not affected by the restatement is unchanged and reflects disclosures made at the time of the filing of the Original Report.
Control Considerations
In connection with the restatement, management has reassessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, the Company identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting due to a design deficiency in controls related to the review of significant unusual transactions, including the impact to income tax expense from those transactions, resulting in the conclusion by our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, that the internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2023. Management has begun to take steps towards remediating the material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. For additional information related to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting and the related remedial measures, see “Part II – Item 4. Controls and Procedures.”

Notes to Restated Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
1) ORGANIZATION, CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION
(a)Business
United Insurance Holdings Corp. (referred to in this document as we, our, us, the Company or UIHC) is a property and casualty insurance holding company that sources, writes and services residential commercial and personal property and casualty insurance policies using a network of agents and two wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries. Our two insurance subsidiaries are Interboro Insurance Company (IIC), acquired via merger on April 29, 2016; and American Coastal Insurance Company (ACIC), acquired via merger on April 3, 2017.
Our other subsidiaries include United Insurance Management, L.C. (UIM), a managing general agent; Skyway Claims Services, LLC, which provides claims adjusting services to ACIC; AmCo Holding Company, LLC (AmCo) which is a holding company subsidiary that consolidates its respective insurance company; BlueLine Cayman Holdings (BlueLine), which reinsures portfolios of excess and surplus policies; UPC Re, which provides a portion of the reinsurance protection purchased by our insurance subsidiaries when needed; Skyway Reinsurance Services, LLC, which provides reinsurance brokerage services for our insurance companies; Skyway Legal Services, LLC, which provides claims litigation services to our insurance companies; and Skyway Technologies, LLC, a managing general agent that provides technological and distribution services to our insurance companies.
Our primary products are commercial and homeowners' residential property insurance. We currently offer commercial residential insurance in Florida. During 2022, we also wrote commercial residential insurance in South Carolina and Texas, however, effective May 1, 2022, we no longer write in these states. In addition, we write personal residential insurance in New York. During 2022, we wrote personal residential business in six other states; however on February 27, 2023, our former insurance subsidiary, United Property & Casualty Insurance Company (UPC) was placed into receivership with the Florida Department of Financial Services (DFS), which divested our ownership of UPC. The events leading to receivership and results of this subsidiary, now included within discontinued operations, are discussed in Note 4 below.
On August 25, 2022, we announced that our former subsidiary UPC had filed plans for withdrawal in the states of Florida, Louisiana, and Texas and intended to file a plan for withdrawal in the state of New York. All filed plans entail non-renewing personal lines policies in these states. Additionally, we announced that Demotech, Inc. (Demotech), an insurance rating agency, notified UPC of its intent to withdraw UPC's Financial Stability Rating. On December 5, 2022, the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation ("FLOIR") issued Consent Order No. 303643-22- CO that provided for the administrative supervision and approval of the plan of run-off for UPC (the "Consent Order"). The Consent Order provided formal approval of UPC's Plan of Run-Off (the "Plan") to facilitate a solvent wind down of its affairs in an orderly fashion. Additionally, in connection with the Plan, IIC agreed to not pay ordinary dividends without the prior approval of the New York Department of Financial Services until January 1, 2025. On February 10, 2023, we announced that a solvent run-off of UPC was unlikely and on February 27, 2023, UPC was placed into receivership with the Florida Department of Financial Services (the "DFS") which divested our ownership of UPC.
Effective June 1, 2022, we merged our majority-owned insurance subsidiary, Journey Insurance Company (JIC) into ACIC, with ACIC being the surviving entity. JIC was formed in strategic partnership with a subsidiary of Tokio Marine Kiln Group Limited (Kiln) on August 30, 2018 and operated independently from ACIC prior to the merging of the entities. The Kiln subsidiary held a noncontrolling interest in JIC, which was terminated prior to the merger.
Effective June 1, 2022, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with TypTap Insurance Company (Typtap). Under the terms of this agreement, we ceded 100% of our former subsidiary UPC's in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina. Effective June 1, 2022, we began the transition of South Carolina policies to Homeowners Choice Property and Casualty Insurance Company, Inc. (HCPCI) in connection with our renewal rights agreement. Effective October 1, 2022, we transitioned Georgia policies to HCPCI in connection with our renewal rights agreement. Effective December 1, 2022, we began the transition of North Carolina policies to HCPCI in connection with our renewal rights agreement. As a result, these policies will no longer be covered under this agreement upon their renewal. This agreement replaces the 85% quota share agreement with HCPCI effective December 31, 2021.
Effective May 31, 2022, we merged Family Security Insurance Company, Inc. (FSIC) into our former subsidiary UPC, with UPC being the surviving entity. FSIC was acquired via merger on February 3, 2015, and operated independently from
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Restated Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
UPC prior to the merging of the entities. In conjunction with the merger, we dissolved Family Security Holdings (FSH), a holding company subsidiary that consolidated its respective insurance company, FSIC.
Effective June 1, 2021, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with HCPCI and TypTap. Under the terms of this agreement, we ceded 100% of our former subsidiary UPC's in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Connecticut, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. The cession of these policies was 50% to HCPCI and 50% to TypTap. HCPCI is responsible for processing all claims as a part of this agreement. As of April 1, 2022, we completed the transition of all policies in these four states to HCPCI in connection with our renewal rights agreement (Northeast Renewal Agreement) to sell UPC's personal lines homeowners business in these states.
We conduct our operations under two reportable segments, personal residential property and casualty insurance policies (personal lines) and commercial residential property and casualty insurance policies (commercial lines). Our chief operating decision maker is our President, who makes decisions to allocate resources and assesses performance at both segment levels, as well as at the corporate level.
(b)Consolidation and Presentation
We prepare our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. In management's opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of interim periods. We include all of our subsidiaries in our consolidated financial statements, eliminating intercompany balances and transactions during consolidation. As described in Note 2, our former subsidiary, UPC, qualifies as a discontinued operation. Our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and footnotes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
While preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Reported amounts that require us to make extensive use of estimates include our reserves for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses, investments and goodwill. Except for the captions on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss, we generally use the term loss(es) to collectively refer to both loss and loss adjustment expenses.
Our results of operations and our cash flows as of the end of the interim periods reported herein do not necessarily indicate our results for the remainder of the year or for any other future period.
(c) Going Concern
Our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, our subsidiary ACIC is a part of a combined reinsurance program with our former subsidiary, UPC.
To properly allocate the reinsurance recoverables under the shared catastrophe treaties, UPC and ACIC entered into a reinsurance allocation agreement that became effective on June 1, 2022 (the "Allocation Agreement"). The Allocation Agreement was filed with and approved by the FLOIR on December 5, 2022. On February 10, 2023, we announced that a solvent run-off of UPC was unlikely, driven by Hurrican Ian losses which exhausted UPC's reinsurance coverage. On February 27, 2023, UPC was placed into receivership with the DFS which divested our ownership of UPC. As of the date of filing our Annual Report, the DFS had not recognized the Allocation Agreement, leaving uncertainty regarding the timing of both recoveries currently held by UPC that are allocated to ACIC and future recoverables. Management also believed that the ability for ACIC to obtain adequate reinsurance to meet its needs for the June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2024 catastrophe cover could only be accomplished assuming that recoveries due to ACIC pursuant to the Allocation Agreement could be resolved in short order.
However, on April 19, 2023, ACIC entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the DFS. Under the terms of the Memorandum, ACIC and the DFS as receiver of UPC have reached the following agreement:
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Restated Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
1.The DFS adopts, ratifies and affirms the Allocation Agreement.
2.All future reinsurance recoverable under reinsurance agreements applicable to the Allocation Agreement for Hurricane Ian losses shall be paid, either directly from the reinsurers or directly from the reinsurance intermediary responsible therefor, to ACIC. If a true up adjustment demonstrates that any future reinsurance recoveries were over-collected by ACIC, ACIC will remit any over-payment to UPC.
While the execution of the MOU does alleviate the uncertainty regarding future recoverables, uncertainty does still exist regarding recoveries currently held by UPC. The Company intends to continue to work towards a fair and equitable solution regarding these held recoveries (See Note 19). In addition, the Company has not finalized its catastrophe cover for June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2024. While continued progress is being made, uncertainty does still exist regarding placement of this cover. As a result, the Company has concluded substantial doubt continues to exist regarding its ability to continue as a going concern.
2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Changes to Significant Accounting Policies
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, our former subsidiary, UPC, was placed into receivership with the DFS. As described in Note 1, effective February 27, 2023, this receivership divested our ownership of UPC. This disposal was evaluated for qualification as a discontinued operation. The results of operations of business are reported as discontinued operations when the disposal represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the entity's operations and financial results. When a business is identified for discontinued operations reporting:
•Results for prior periods are retroactively reclassified as discontinued operations;
•Results of operations are reported in a single line, net of tax, in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss); and
•Assets and liabilities are reported as held for disposal in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets
•Premiums directly assumed from UPC by another entity of the consolidated group are now captured as assumed.
Additional details by major classification of operating results and financial position are included in Note 4.
There have been no other changes to our significant accounting policies as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
(b) Pending Accounting Pronouncements
We have evaluated pending accounting pronouncements and do not believe any would have an impact on the operations or financial reporting of our company.
3) RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY REPORTED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Subsequent to the issuance of the Form 10-Q as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company concluded it should restate its previously issued financial statements for both 2023 and 2022 to accurately present discontinued operations, including activities that directly support its former subsidiary, UPC, in accordance with ASC 205-20. The Company had previously excluded these supporting activities, assets, and liabilities, presenting only the results, assets and liabilities of UPC as discontinued operations.
In addition, the Company concluded it should restate its previously issued financial statements to accurately present its tax provision (benefit) related to both continuing and discontinued operations. Previously, the calculation of this provision (benefit) incorrectly included the benefit of the use of certain deferred tax assets held by UPC after the disposition of UPC occurred and incorrectly allocated this provision between continuing and discontinued operations.
In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, the Company evaluated the errors and has determined that the related impact was material to the previously filed financial statements that contained the error, reported in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023. Therefore, the Company concluded that the affected quarterly periods should be restated to present continuing and discontinued operations appropriately and recognize the additional
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Restated Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
provision for income taxes for the period and allocate appropriately to continuing and discontinued operations. As such, the Company is reporting these restated financial statements in this amended quarterly report. The previously filed Form 10-Q should no longer be relied upon.
The impact of the restatement on the financial statements for the affected quarterly periods are presented below.

4) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Restated Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
On August 25, 2022, we announced that our former subsidiary UPC had filed plans for withdrawal in the states of Florida, Louisiana, and Texas and intended to file a plan for withdrawal in the state of New York. All filed plans entailed non-renewing personal lines policies in these states. Additionally, we announced that Demotech, an insurance rating agency, notified UPC of its intent to withdraw UPC's Financial Stability Rating. On December 5, 2022, the FLOIR issued Consent Order No. 303643-22- CO that provided for the administrative supervision and approval of the plan of run-off for UPC (the "Consent Order"). The Consent Order provided formal approval of UPC's Plan of Run-Off (the "Plan") to facilitate a solvent wind down of its affairs in an orderly fashion. On February 10, 2023, we announced that a solvent run-off of UPC was unlikely, driven by Hurricane Ian losses which exhausted UPC's reinsurance coverage. On February 27, 2023, UPC was placed into receivership with the DFS which divested our ownership of UPC.
In the first quarter of 2023, the assets and liabilities of UPC were divested. In addition, activities provided by our entities, SCS, SLS and UIM, related directly to supporting the business conducted by UPC have been included. The assets and liabilities for the balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 are reclassified as held for disposal retrospectively, and the results of UPC and activities related directly to supporting the business conducted by UPC are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

As of February 28, 2023, the Company completed the disposal of its former subsidiary, UPC. This divestiture resulted in a gain of $238,440,000 for the period. This gain was driven by the negative equity position of UPC.

5) SEGMENT REPORTING
Personal Lines Business
Our personal lines business provides structure, content and liability coverage for standard single-family homeowners, renters and condominium unit owners, through our subsidiary IIC. Personal residential products are offered in New York. We include coverage to policyholders for loss or damage to dwellings, detached structures or equipment caused by covered causes of loss such as fire, wind, hail, water, theft and vandalism.
We have developed a unique and proprietary homeowners’ product. This product uses a granular approach to pricing for catastrophe perils. We have focused on using independent agencies as a channel of distribution for our personal lines business. All of our personal lines business is managed internally.
Commercial Lines Business
Our commercial lines business primarily provides commercial multi-peril property insurance for residential condominium associations and apartments in Florida, through our subsidiary ACIC. We include coverage to policyholders for loss or damage to buildings, inventory or equipment caused by covered causes of loss such as fire, wind, hail, water, theft and vandalism. We also wrote commercial residential coverage through our subsidiary JIC, in South Carolina and Texas. Effective June 1, 2022 JIC was merged into ACIC, with ACIC being the surviving entity. As a result, the commercial residential policies originally written by JIC were not renewed effective May 31, 2022.
All of our commercial lines business is administered by an outside managing general underwriter, AmRisc, LLC (AmRisc). This includes handling the underwriting, claims processing and premium collection related to our commercial business. In return, AmRisc is reimbursed through monthly management fees. International Catastrophe Insurance Managers (ICAT) handled the underwriting and premium collection for JIC’s commercial business written in South Carolina and Texas and was also reimbursed through monthly management fees. Effective May 31, 2022, the Company terminated its agreement with ICAT.
Please note the following similarities pertaining to the accounting and transactions of our operating segments for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:
•Both operating segments follow the accounting policies as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022;
•Neither operating segment experienced significant noncash transactions outside of depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Portfolio monitoring
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Restated Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
We have a quarterly portfolio monitoring process to identify and evaluate each fixed-income security whose carrying value may be impaired as the result of a credit loss. For each fixed-income security in an unrealized loss position, if we determine that we intend to sell the security or that it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of the cost or amortized cost basis for reasons such as liquidity needs, contractual or regulatory requirements, the security's entire decline in fair value is recorded in earnings.
If our management decides not to sell the fixed-income security and it is more likely than not that we will not be required to sell the fixed-income security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, we evaluate whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. This is typically indicated by a change in the rating of the security assigned by a rating agency, and any adverse conditions specifically related to the security or industry, among other factors. If the assessment indicates that a credit loss may exist, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses will be recorded in earnings. Credit loss is limited to the difference between a security's amortized cost basis and its fair value. Any additional impairment not recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive loss.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we determined that none of our fixed-income securities shown in the table below that are in an unrealized loss position have declines in fair value that are reflected as a result of credit losses. Therefore, no credit loss allowance was recorded at March 31, 2023. The issuers of our debt security investments continue to make interest payments on a timely basis. We do not intend to sell, nor is it likely that we would be required to sell the debt securities before we recover our amortized cost basis. Equity securities are reported at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the valuation of equity investments.
The following table presents an aging of our unrealized investment losses by investment class:

Fair value measurement
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Restated Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The hierarchy for inputs used in determining fair value maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Assets and liabilities recorded on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value are categorized in the fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that we can access.
Level 2: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on the following:
(a) Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
(b) Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or
(c) Valuation models whose inputs are observable, directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3: Assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect our estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the assets and liabilities.
We estimate the fair value of our investments using the closing prices on the last business day of the reporting period, obtained from active markets such as the NYSE, Nasdaq and NYSE American. For securities for which quoted prices in active markets are unavailable, we use a third-party pricing service that utilizes quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, benchmark interest rates, broker quotes and other relevant inputs to estimate the fair value of those securities for which quoted prices are unavailable. Our estimates of fair value reflect the interest rate environment that existed as of the close of business on March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Changes in interest rates subsequent to March 31, 2023 may affect the fair value of our investments.
The fair value of our fixed maturities is initially calculated by a third-party pricing service. Valuation service providers typically obtain data about market transactions and other key valuation model inputs from multiple sources and, through the use of proprietary models, produce valuation information in the form of a single fair value for individual fixed-income and other securities for which a fair value has been requested. The inputs used by the valuation service providers include, but are not limited to, market prices from recently completed transactions and transactions of comparable securities, interest rate yield curves, credit spreads, liquidity spreads, currency rates and other information, as applicable. Credit and liquidity spreads are typically implied from completed transactions and transactions of comparable securities. Valuation service providers also use proprietary discounted cash flow models that are widely accepted in the financial services industry and similar to those used by other market participants to value the same financial information. The valuation models take into account, among other things, market observable information as of the measurement date, as described above, as well as the specific attributes of the security being valued, including its term, interest rate, credit rating, industry sector and, where applicable, collateral quality and other issue or issuer specific information. Executing valuation models effectively requires seasoned professional judgment and experience.
Any change in the estimated fair value of our fixed-income securities would impact the amount of unrealized gain or loss we have recorded, which could change the amount we have recorded for our investments and other comprehensive loss on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2023.
The following table presents the fair value of our financial instruments measured on a recurring basis by level at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

(1) Other investments included in the fair value hierarchy exclude these limited partnership interests that are measured at estimated fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient.
Certain financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; this is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). There were no financial instruments measured on a non-recurring basis at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
The carrying amounts for the following financial instrument categories approximate their fair values at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, because of their short-term nature: cash and cash equivalents, accrued investment income, premiums receivable, reinsurance recoverable, reinsurance payable, other assets, and other liabilities. The carrying amount of our senior notes approximate fair value as the interest rates and terms are variable.
We are responsible for the determination of fair value and the supporting assumptions and methodologies. We have implemented a system of processes and controls designed to provide assurance that our assets and liabilities are appropriately valued. For fair values received from third parties, our processes are designed to provide assurance that the valuation methodologies and inputs are appropriate and consistently applied, the assumptions are reasonable and consistent with the objective of determining fair value, and the fair values are accurately recorded.
At the end of each quarter, we determine whether we need to transfer the fair values of any securities between levels of the fair value hierarchy and, if so, we report the transfer as of the end of the quarter. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, we transferred no investments between levels.
For our investments in U.S. government securities that do not have prices in active markets, agency securities, state and municipal governments, and corporate bonds, we obtain the fair values from our investment custodians, which use a third-party valuation service. The valuation service calculates prices for our investments in the aforementioned security types on a month-

end basis by using several matrix-pricing methodologies that incorporate inputs from various sources. The model the valuation service uses to price U.S. government securities and securities of states and municipalities incorporates inputs from active market makers and inter-dealer brokers. To price corporate bonds and agency securities, the valuation service calculates non-call yield spreads on all issuers, uses option-adjusted yield spreads to account for any early redemption features, and adds final spreads to the U.S. Treasury curve at 3 p.m. (ET) as of quarter end. Since the inputs the valuation service uses in its calculations are not quoted prices in active markets, but are observable inputs, they represent Level 2 inputs.
Other investments
We acquired investments in limited partnerships, recorded in the other investments line of our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and these investments are currently being measured at estimated fair value utilizing a net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient.

No impairment in the value of goodwill was recognized during the three month period ended March 31, 2023. As a result of the strategic decision to place our former subsidiary UPC into an orderly runoff, we recognized an impairment of our personal lines reporting unit's goodwill totaling $13,569,000 during the third quarter of 2022. The goodwill attributable to our commercial lines reporting unit was most recently tested for impairment during the fourth quarter of 2022. It was determined that there was no additional impairment in the value of the asset as of December 31, 2022.
Goodwill allocated to our commercial lines reporting unit was $59,476,000 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. There was no goodwill allocated to our personal lines reporting unit at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

10) REINSURANCE
Our reinsurance program is designed, utilizing our risk management methodology, to address our exposure to catastrophes. Our program provides reinsurance protection for catastrophes, including hurricanes and tropical storms. These reinsurance agreements are part of our catastrophe management strategy, which is intended to provide our stockholders an acceptable return on the risks assumed in our property business, and to reduce variability of earnings, while providing protection to our policyholders. Although reinsurance agreements contractually obligate our reinsurers to reimburse us for the agreed-upon portion of our gross paid losses, they do not discharge our primary liability.
Our program includes excess of loss and quota share treaties. Our catastrophe reinsurance program, in effect from June 1, 2022 through May 31, 2023, provides coverage for catastrophe losses from named or numbered windstorms and earthquakes up to an exhaustion point of approximately $2,500,000,000 in the aggregate, including coverage related to our former insurance subsidiary, UPC. Under our core catastrophe excess of loss treaty, retention on a first and second event is $16,400,000 each. During the third quarter, one of the our reinsurers participating on the $25,000,000 excess of $20,000,000 layer of the core catastrophe program exercised a contractual right to terminate their participation due to Demotech's downgrade of UPC's Financial Stability Rating. We were unsuccessful in replacing this coverage in the open market so our captive reinsurer, UPC Re, stepped into the $25,000,000 excess of $20,000,000 layer which was subsequently impacted by Hurricane Ian resulting in an additional retained loss of $20,100,000. The exhaustion point of IIC's catastrophe reinsurance program is approximately $200,000,000 in the aggregate, with a retention of $3,000,000 per occurrence, covering all perils.
During the third quarter of 2022, the Company's core catastrophe reinsurance program was impacted by Hurricane Ian. As a result, the Company has approximately $508 million of occurrence limit remaining for Ian all of which is attributable to ACIC only. After reinstatement premiums of approximately $15.4 million, the Company, with its former subsidiary UPC has approximately $993 million of aggregate limit remaining after Ian, based on our estimated ultimate net loss subject to the core catastrophe reinsurance program.
Effective January 1, 2023, we renewed our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement. The agreement provides protection from catastrophe loss events other than named windstorms and earthquakes up to $101,000,000.
During the third quarter of 2022, one of our private reinsurers who held a 100% share of the $15,000,000 in excess of $15,000,000 layer on our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement notified us of their intent to terminate the agreement due to the contractual provision regarding the change in our former subsidiary UPC's statutory surplus being greater than 25%. We agreed to a termination and commutation date of September 30, 2022 for this contract. This change resulted in approximately $1,300,000 of ceded premium savings that would have otherwise been due in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the Company retaining all the risk for any non-hurricane catastrophe losses up to $30,000,000, excluding any quota share recoveries.
The table below outlines our quota share agreements in effect for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The impacts of these quota share agreements on our former subsidiay, UPC's financial statements are included in discontinued operations.

Composition of reserve for unpaid losses and LAE:
| | | |
Case reserves | $ | 284,679 | | | $ | 119,969 | |
IBNR reserves | 463,686 | | | 119,604 | |
Balance at March 31 | $ | 748,365 | | | $ | 239,573 | |
Based upon our internal analysis and our review of the annual statement of actuarial opinion provided by our actuarial consultants at December 31, 2022, we believe that the reserve for unpaid losses reasonably represents the amount necessary to pay all claims and related expenses which may arise from incidents that have occurred as of the balance sheet date.
As reflected in the table above, we had favorable development in both 2023 and 2022 related to prior year losses. This favorable development came as a result of re-estimating ultimate losses in 2023 based on historical loss trends. The loss payments made by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2023, were lower than the loss payments made during the three months ended March 31, 2022, due to the settling of claims related to non-tropical storm catastrophe events. Case and IBNR reserves and reinsurance recoverable on unpaid losses increased when compared to the prior period as a result of Hurricane Ian, which made landfall during the third quarter of 2022.

March 31, 2023
Senior Notes Payable
On December 13, 2017, we issued $150,000,000 of 10-year senior notes (the Senior Notes) that will mature on December 15, 2027 and bear interest at a rate equal to 6.25% per annum payable semi-annually on each June 15 and December 15, commencing June 15, 2018. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company. We may redeem the Senior Notes at our option, at any time and from time to time in whole or in part, prior to September 15, 2027, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon from the date of redemption to the date that is three months prior to maturity, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. On or after that date, we may redeem the Senior Notes at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. On December 8, 2022, the Kroll Bond Rating Agency, LLC announced a downgrade of our issuer and debt ratings from BBB- to BB+. As a result, pursuant to our agreement, the interest rate of our Senior Notes increased from 6.25% to 7.25% effective on the next interest payment date of June 15, 2023.
Florida State Board of Administration Note Payable
On September 22, 2006, we issued a $20,000,000, 20-year note payable to the Florida State Board of Administration (the SBA Note). For the first three years of the SBA Note we were required to pay interest only. On October 1, 2009, we began to repay the principal in addition to interest. The SBA Note bears an annual interest rate equivalent to the 10-year Constant Maturity Treasury rate (as defined in the SBA Note agreement), which resets quarterly. This note was held by our former insurance subsidiary, UPC. On February 27, 2023, UPC was placed into receivership with the Florida Department of Financial Services, divesting our ownership of UPC.
Truist Term Note Payable
On May 26, 2016, we issued a $5,200,000, 15-year term note payable to Truist (the Truist Note), with the intent to use the funds to purchase, renovate, furnish and equip our principal executive office. The Truist Note bears interest at 1.65% in excess of the one-month LIBOR, which resets monthly. LIBOR was phased out at the end of 2021, however, the Intercontinental Exchange will continue to publish one-month LIBOR settings through 2023. The outstanding Truist Note payable balance, including applicable interest, was repaid in full on August 12, 2022. Therefore, effective August 12, 2022, Truist no longer holds our principal executive office as collateral and may not take possession of or foreclose upon the office.

Senior Notes - Our Senior Notes provide that the Company and its subsidiaries shall not incur any indebtedness unless no default exists and the Company’s leverage ratio as of the last day of any annual or quarterly period (the balance sheet date) immediately preceding the date on which such additional indebtedness is incurred would have been no greater than 0.3:1, determined on a pro forma basis as if the additional indebtedness and all other indebtedness incurred since the immediately preceding balance sheet date had been incurred and the proceeds therefrom applied as of such day. The Company and its subsidiaries also may not create, assume, incur or permit to exist any indebtedness for borrowed money that is secured by a lien on the voting stock of any significant subsidiary without securing the Senior Notes equally. The Company may not issue, sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the capital stock of the Company’s significant subsidiaries as of the issue date of the Senior Notes (except to the Company or to one or more of the Company’s other subsidiaries, or for the purpose of qualifying directors or as may be required by law or regulation), subject to certain exceptions. At December 31, 2022, while our leverage ratio was greater than the allowed ratio above, we did not incur any additional debt during the period and as a result, we were in compliance with the covenants in the Senior Notes.
SBA Note - Our SBA Note required that UPC maintained either a 2:1 ratio of net written premium to surplus, or net writing ratio, or a 6:1 ratio of gross written premium to surplus, or gross writing ratio, to avoid additional interest penalties. The SBA Note agreement defined surplus for the purpose of calculating the required ratios as the $20,000,000 of capital contributed to UPC under the agreement plus the outstanding balance of the note. Should UPC have failed to exceed either a net writing ratio of 1.5:1 or a gross writing ratio of 4.5:1, UPC's interest rate would have increased by 450 basis points above the 10-year Constant Maturity Treasury rate, which was 3.76% at the end of March 2023. Any other writing ratio deficiencies resulted in an interest rate penalty of 25 basis points above the stated rate of the note. Our SBA Note further provided that the Florida State Board of Administration may, among other things, declare its loan immediately due and payable upon any default existing

under the SBA Note; however, any payment is subject to approval by the insurance regulatory authority. At March 31, 2023, we were no longer the holders of the SBA Note.

13) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
We are involved in claims-related legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. We accrue amounts resulting from claims-related legal actions in unpaid losses and LAE during the period that we determine an unfavorable outcome becomes probable and we can estimate the amounts. Management makes revisions to our estimates based on its analysis of subsequent information that we receive regarding various factors, including: (i) per claim information; (ii) company and industry historical loss experience; (iii) judicial decisions and legal developments in the awarding of damages; and (iv) trends in general economic conditions, including the effects of inflation.
At March 31, 2023, the Company is involved in legal proceedings whereby on August 18, 2021, a former employee of Skyway Legal Services, LLC, filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The lawsuit alleges violations of and damages arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, and seeks damages in an unspecified amount. The Company, a named party to the lawsuit, denies that it employed the plaintiff and disputes the claims set forth in the lawsuit. On September 27, 2022, venue was transferred to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division. The Company believes that an unfavorable outcome is neither probable nor estimable.
Commitments to fund partnership investments
We have fully funded one limited partnership investments and have committed to fund our remaining limited partnership investment. The amount of unfunded commitments was $4,242,000 and $4,238,000 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Leases
We, as lessee, have entered into leases of commercial office space of various term lengths. In addition to office space, we lease office equipment and a parking lot under operating leases and vehicles under finance leases.

Subleases
We previously leased and occupied office space in which we no longer operate. Effective October 1, 2022, this office space is now subleased to a third-party. This sublease is effective from October 1, 2022 through July 31, 2025, with no option to extend. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized $33,000 of income related to this sublease, exclusive of the lease expense associated with the original lease. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recognized $297,000 of income related to this sublease, exclusive of the lease expense associated with the original lease.
Additionally, as a result of the sublease, we evaluated our right-of-use asset associated with the original lease for impairment, using the undiscounted cash flows from the sublease. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recognized impairment of $175,000, which was recognized in the results of our personal lines operating segment.
Employee Retention Credit
A series of legislation was enacted in the United States during 2020 and 2021 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that provided financial relief for businesses impacted by government-mandated shutdowns, work stoppages, or other losses suffered by employers. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) provided an employee retention credit, which is a refundable tax credit against certain employment taxes of up to $5,000 per employee for eligible employers. The tax credit is equal to 50% of qualified wages paid to employees during a quarter, capped at $10,000 of qualified wages per employee. During the second quarter of 2022, we evaluated our eligibility and filed for a $10,161,000 refund in connection with our Employee Retention Tax Credit for the tax year ended December 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2022, we have received $5,718,000 from the Internal Revenue Service related to this refund. A gain contingency is an uncertain situation that will be resolved in the future, possibly resulting in a gain. We have not recorded the recognition of this gain contingency, except for what has already been received and what was received after the balance sheet date prior to finalizing our results for the quarter, prior to settlement of the underlying event.
While we believe the likelihood of the refund approval being reversed is low, a loss contingency to the extent of the refunds received and recognized is present. We will continue to monitor the matter for further developments that could affect the outcome of these contingencies and will make any appropriate adjustments each quarter.
14) ALLOWANCE FOR EXPECTED CREDIT LOSSES
We are exposed to credit losses primarily through four different pools of assets based on similar risk characteristics: premiums receivable for direct written business; reinsurance recoverables from ceded losses to our reinsurers; our investment holdings; and our notes receivable. We estimate the expected credit losses based on historical trends, credit ratings assigned to reinsurers by rating agencies, average default rates, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions that affect the collectability of the reported amounts over its expected life. Changes in the relevant information may significantly affect the estimates of expected credit losses.
The allowance for credit losses is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the assets to present their net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected. Each period, the allowance for credit losses is adjusted through earnings to reflect expected credit losses over the remaining lives of the assets.
The following tables summarize our allowance for expected credit losses by pooled asset for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

15) STATUTORY ACCOUNTING AND REGULATION
The insurance industry is heavily regulated. State laws and regulations, as well as national regulatory agency requirements, govern the operations of all insurers such as our insurance subsidiaries. The various laws and regulations require that insurers maintain minimum amounts of statutory surplus and risk-based capital, restrict insurers' ability to pay dividends, specify allowable investment types and investment mixes, and subject insurers to assessments. Effective June 1, 2022, our insurance subsidiaries JIC and ACIC were merged, with ACIC being the surviving entity. Effective May 31, 2022, our former insurance subsidiaries UPC and FSIC were merged, with UPC being the surviving entity. Both UPC and ACIC are domiciled in Florida, while IIC is domiciled in New York. At March 31, 2023, and during the three months then ended, ACIC and IIC met all regulatory requirements of the states in which they operate. As of December 31, 2022, UPC was determined to be insolvent and effective February 27, 2023 was placed into receivership by the DFS.
During 2023, we received an assessment notice from the Florida Insurance Guaranty Association (FIGA). This assessment will be 0.7% on direct written premium of all covered lines of business in Florida to cover the cost of an insurance company facing insolvency. This assessment is in addition to the 1.3% assessment, described below, and is recoupable from policyholders. During 2022, we received an assessment notice from FIGA. This assessment will be 1.3% on direct written premium of all covered lines of business in Florida to cover the cost of an insurance company facing insolvency.
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) has Risk-Based Capital (RBC) guidelines for insurance companies that are designed to assess capital adequacy and to raise the level of protection that statutory surplus provides for policyholders. Most states, including Florida and New York, have enacted statutory requirements adopting the NAIC RBC guidelines, and insurers having less statutory surplus than required will be subject to varying degrees of regulatory action, depending on the level of capital inadequacy. State insurance regulatory authorities could require an insurer to cease operations in the event the insurer fails to maintain the required statutory capital.
The state laws of Florida and New York permit an insurer to pay dividends or make distributions out of that part of statutory surplus derived from net operating profit and net realized capital gains. The state laws further provide calculations to determine the amount of dividends or distributions that can be made without the prior approval of the insurance regulatory authorities in those states and the amount of dividends or distributions that would require prior approval of the insurance regulatory authorities in those states. Statutory RBC requirements may further restrict our insurance subsidiaries' ability to pay dividends or make distributions if the amount of the intended dividend or distribution would cause statutory surplus to fall below minimum RBC requirements. Additionally, in connection with our former subsidiary UPC's plan for run off, IIC has agreed to not pay ordinary dividends without prior approval of the New York Department of Financial Services until January 1, 2025.
Our insurance subsidiaries must each file with the various insurance regulatory authorities an “Annual Statement” which reports, among other items, statutory net income (loss) and surplus as regards policyholders, which is called stockholders' equity under GAAP. The table below details the statutory net income (loss) for each of our regulated entities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

As of March 31, 2023, we had not yet repurchased any shares under this stock repurchase plan. The timing and volume of repurchases are at the discretion of management, based on the capital needs of the business, the market price of UIHC common stock, and general market conditions. The plan has no expiration date, and the plan may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

18) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
We account for stock-based compensation under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC Topic 718 - Compensation - Stock Compensation. We recognize stock-based compensation cost over the award’s requisite service period on a straight-line basis for time-based restricted stock grants and performance-based restricted stock grants. We record forfeitures as they occur for all stock-based compensation.
The following table presents our total stock-based compensation expense:

Post-tax (1) | | | | | | 21 | | | 49 | |
(1) The after tax amounts are determined using the 21% corporate federal tax rate.
We had approximately $1,709,000 of unrecognized stock compensation expense at March 31, 2023 related to non-vested stock-based compensation granted, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.8 years. We had approximately $10,000 of unrecognized director stock-based compensation expense at March 31, 2023 related to non-vested director stock-based compensation granted, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 0.1 years.
Restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance stock units
Stock-based compensation cost for restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and performance stock units is measured based on the closing fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, which vest in equal installments over the requisite service period of typically three years. Restricted stock awards granted to non-employee directors vest over a one-year period. Each restricted stock unit and performance stock unit represents our obligation to deliver to the holder one share of common stock upon vesting.
Performance stock units vest based on the Company's return on average equity compared to a defined group of peer companies. On the grant date, we issue the target number of performance stock units. They are subject to forfeitures if performance goals are not met. The actual number of performance stock units earned can vary from zero to 150 percent of the target for the 2023, 2022, and 2021 awards.
We did not grant any shares of restricted common stock during the three month period ended March 31, 2023. We granted 114,866 shares of restricted common stock during the three month period ended March 31, 2022, which had a weighted-average grant date fair value of $3.59 per share.
The following table presents certain information related to the activity of our non-vested common stock grants:

UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Restated Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Stock options
Stock option fair value was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton formula. Stock options vest in equal installments over the requisite service period of typically three years. The following weighted-average assumptions were used to value the stock options granted:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| 2023 | | 2022 |
Expected annual dividend yield | — | % | | — | % |
Expected volatility | — | % | | 49.66 | % |
Risk-free interest rate | — | % | | 2.92 | % |
Expected term | N/A | | 6 years |
The expected annual dividend yield for our options granted during 2022 is based on no dividends being paid in future quarters. The expected volatility is a historical volatility calculated based on the daily closing prices over a period equal to the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the grant date. Expected term takes into account the three-year graded vesting term and the 10-year contractual term of the option.
We did not grant any stock options during the three month periods ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
The following table presents certain information related to the activity of our non-vested stock option grants:

19) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
We evaluate all subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure in our financial statements.
On April 5, 2023, the Company filed a Motion for Release of Property of ACIC in the Circuit Court of the Second Judicial
Circuit for Leon County, Florida, requesting that UPC immediately remit to ACIC reinsurance recoveries currently held by UPC and reinsurance recoveries recovered by UPC in the future in accordance with the Company’s Allocation Agreement. Alternatively, ACIC requested future reinsurance recoveries remitted to UPC be placed into a segregated account for future reconciliation and remittance to ACIC. On April 13, 2023, the DFS filed a response to the Company’s motion, objecting to ACIC’s position. On April 14, 2023, the Court denied ACIC’s motion without prejudice.
On April 19, 2023, United Insurance Holding Corp.'s (the "Company") subsidiary, American Coastal Insurance Company ("ACIC") entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the "Memorandum") with the Florida Department of Financial Services, Division of Rehabilitation and Liquidation (the "DFS") as receiver of the Company's former subsidiary, United Property & Casualty Insurance Company ("UPC") related to the Reinsurance Allocation Agreement (the "Allocation Agreement") by and between ACIC and UPC.
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to Restated Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2023
The Allocation Agreement, effective on June 1, 2022, and approved by the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation (the "FLOIR") on December 5, 2022, describes the manner in which reinsurance recoveries under shared reinsurance agreements are allocated between ACIC and UPC. Under the terms of the Memorandum, ACIC and the DFS as receiver of UPC have reached the following agreement:
1.The DFS adopts, ratifies and affirms the Allocation Agreement.
2.All future reinsurance recoverable under reinsurance agreements applicable to the Allocation Agreement for Hurricane Ian losses shall be paid, either directly from the reinsurers, or directly from the reinsurance intermediary responsible therefor, to ACIC. If a true up adjustment demonstrates that any future reinsurance recoveries were over-collected by ACIC, ACIC will remit any over-payment to UPC.
On May 15, 2023, the Company, together with it's subsidiary, ACIC, entered into a Tax Memorandum of Understanding (the "Tax Memorandum") with the DFS as receiver of the Company's former subsidiary, UPC. On February 27, 2023, UPC entered into receivership with the DFS as receiver. As of March 31, 2023, in accordance with the various reinsurance allocation agreements including the Allocation Agreement described above, the Company is due approximately $38,352,000 of net reinsurance recoveries received by UPC on behalf of the Company but not settled prior to receivership. In addition, in April ACIC paid reinsurance premiums on behalf of UPC totaling $12,929,000. The Company and the DFS believe that an opportunity exists to settle these balances via the realization of certain deferred tax assets of the Company's consolidated Federal and Florida tax returns to which ACIC and UPC belong. UPC holds certain deferred tax assets that are believed to be on no value to UPC on a stand-alone basis. However, ACIC and the Company have the opportunity, subject to certain conditions such as continuing and adequate profitability, to realize these assets. Under the terms of the Tax Memorandum, the Company, ACIC and the DFS as receiver of UPC have reached the following agreement:
1.The parties agree to cooperate with one another to achieve realization of the deferred tax assets;
2.The parties agree to deposit the funds that are or may be due to UPC pursuant to the Tax Allocation Agreement into a segregated account held by ACIC that will serve as collateral for any amount payable from or to UPC;
3.The parties agree that the Federal Income Tax Allocation Agreement entered into prior to UPC’s receivership is ratified and accepted by all parties;
4.The parties agree to an annual “true up” of the allocation of the disputed recoveries to the extent that such recoveries were not allocated correctly according to the Reinsurance Allocation Agreement;
5.In the event that ACIC, UIHC, or any of their affiliates make a claim or file a proof of claim in the UPC estate, the reviewed, approved, and/or adjudicated claim shall be reduced by the amount of (a) any tax benefit collectively received by ACIC, UIHC, or any of their affiliates as well as (b) any money withdrawn from the DTA Account for the benefit of any entity other than UPC; and
6.In the event that the benefit received by the Company is greater than the disputed recoveries, the difference shall be paid to DFS as receiver of UPC.
The Tax Memorandum allows the Company to secure amounts due from UPC to ACIC provided the Internal Revenue Service does not object to the Company utilizing UPC's net operating loss carry-forward against its future taxable income.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Overview
United Insurance Holdings Corp. (referred to in this document as we, our, us, the Company or UIHC) is a holding company primarily engaged in commercial and personal property and casualty insurance business with investments in the United States. We conduct our business principally through our two wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries: American Coastal Insurance Company (ACIC); and Interboro Insurance Company (IIC). Collectively, we refer to the holding company and all our subsidiaries, including non-insurance subsidiaries, as “United Insurance Holdings,” which is the preferred brand identification for our Company.
Our Company’s primary source of revenue is generated from writing insurance in Florida and New York. Our target market in such areas consists of states where the perceived threat of natural catastrophe has caused large national insurance carriers to reduce their concentration of policies. We believe an opportunity exists for UIHC to write profitable business in such areas. During 2022, we also wrote commercial residential insurance in South Carolina and Texas, however, effective May 1, 2022, we no longer write in these states. In addition, during 2022 we wrote personal residential business in six other states, however on February 27, 2023, our former insurance subsidiary, United Property & Casualty Insurance Company (UPC) was placed into receivership with the Florida Department of Financial Services, which divested our ownership of UPC. The events leading to receivership and results of this subsidiary, now included within discontinued operations, can be seen in Note 4 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements above.
On August 25, 2022, we announced that our former subsidiary UPC had filed plans for withdrawal in the states of Florida, Louisiana, and Texas and intended to file a plan for withdrawal in the state of New York. All filed plans entail non-renewing personal lines policies in these states. Additionally, we announced that Demotech, Inc. (Demotech), an insurance rating agency, notified UPC of its intent to withdraw UPC's Financial Stability Rating. On December 5, 2022, the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation ("FLOIR") issued Consent Order No. 303643-22- CO that provided for the administrative supervision and approval of the plan of run-off for UPC (the "Consent Order"). The Consent Order provided formal approval of UPC's Plan of Run-Off (the "Plan") to facilitate a solvent wind down of its affairs in an orderly fashion. Additionally, in connection with the Plan, IIC agreed to not pay ordinary dividends without the prior approval of the New York Department of Financial Services until January 1, 2025. On February 10, 2023, we announced that a solvent run-off of UPC was unlikely and on February 27, 2023, UPC was placed into receivership with the Florida Department of Financial Services (the "DFS") which divested our ownership of UPC.
Our Company, together with its former subsidiary, UPC and wholly-owned subsidiary United Insurance Management, L.C. (UIM), entered into a Renewal Rights Agreement (Southeast Renewal Agreement), dated as of December 30, 2021 with Homeowners Choice Property and Casualty Insurance Company, Inc. (HCPCI), pursuant to which our Company, UPC and UIM agreed to sell, and HCPCI agreed to purchase, the renewal rights to UPC’s personal lines homeowners business in Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina. The transfer of policies is subject to regulatory approval. Effective June 1, 2022, we began transitioning South Carolina policies to HCPCI. The sale was consummated on December 30, 2021.
Effective June 1, 2022, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with TypTap Insurance Company (Typtap) in connection with the Southeast Renewal Agreement. Under the terms of this agreement, we ceded 100% of our former subsidiary UPC's in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. This agreement replaces the 85% quota share agreement with HCPCI effective December 31, 2021. Also effective June 1, our third-party quota share reinsurance agreements were renewed to exclude these states. We will no longer retain any risk associated with these states.
Our Company, together with its former subsidiary UPC and wholly-owned subsidiary UIM, entered into a Renewal Rights Agreement (Northeast Renewal Agreement), dated as of January 18, 2021 with HCPCI and HCI Group, Inc. (HCI), pursuant to
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
which our Company, UPC and UIM agreed to sell, and HCPCI agreed to purchase, the renewal rights to UPC’s personal lines homeowners business in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Rhode Island. The transfer of all states was completed as of June 30, 2022.
Effective June 1, 2021, we entered into a quota share reinsurance agreement with HCPCI and TypTap in connection with the Northeast Renewal Agreement. Under the terms of this agreement, we ceded 100% of our former subsidiary UPC's in-force, new, and renewal policies in the states of Connecticut, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. The cession of these policies is 50% to HCPCI and 50% to TypTap.
We have historically grown our business through strong organic growth, complemented by strategic acquisitions and partnerships, including our acquisitions of AmCo Holding Company, LLC (AmCo) and its subsidiaries, including ACIC, in April 2017, IIC in April 2016, and Family Security Holdings, LLC (FSH), including its subsidiary Family Security Insurance Company, Inc. (FSIC), in February 2015, and our strategic partnership with a subsidiary of Tokio Marine Kiln Group Limited (Tokio Marine), which formed Journey Insurance Company (JIC) in August 2018. Effective June 1, 2022, we merged JIC into ACIC, with ACIC being the surviving entity. Effective May 31, 2022, we merged FSIC into UPC, with UPC being the surviving entity.
As a result of the receivership of our former subsidiary UPC by the DFS effective February 27, 2022, our policies in-force decreased by 51.3% from 48,152 policies in-force at March 31, 2022 to 23,473 policies in-force at March 31, 2023.
The following discussion highlights significant factors influencing the consolidated financial position and results of operations of United Insurance Holdings. In evaluating our results of operations, we use premiums written and earned, policies in-force and new and renewal policies by geographic concentration. We also consider the impact of catastrophe losses and prior year development on our loss ratios, expense ratios and combined ratios. In monitoring our investments, we use credit quality, investment income, cash flows, realized gains and losses, unrealized gains and losses, asset diversification and portfolio duration. To evaluate our financial condition, we consider our liquidity, financial strength, ratings, book value per share and return on equity.

UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Definitions of Non-GAAP Measures
We believe that investors' understanding of UIHC's performance is enhanced by our disclosure of the following non-GAAP measures. Our methods for calculating these measures may differ from those used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited.
Combined ratio excluding the effects of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (underlying combined ratio) is a non-GAAP measure, that is computed by subtracting the effect of current year catastrophe losses and prior year development from the combined ratio. We believe that this ratio is useful to investors and it is used by management to highlight the trends in our business that may be obscured by current year catastrophe losses and prior year development. Current year catastrophe losses cause our loss trends to vary significantly between periods as a result of their frequency of occurrence and magnitude, and can have a significant impact on the combined ratio. Prior year development is caused by unexpected loss development on historical reserves. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the combined ratio. The underlying combined ratio should not be considered as a substitute for the combined ratio and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.
Net loss and LAE excluding the effects of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development (underlying loss and LAE) is a non-GAAP measure, that is computed by subtracting the effect of current year catastrophe losses and prior year reserve development from net loss and LAE. We use underlying loss and LAE figures to analyze our loss trends that may be impacted by current year catastrophe losses and prior year development on our reserves. As discussed previously, these two items can have a significant impact on our loss trends in a given period. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss and LAE. The underlying loss and LAE measure should not be considered a substitute for net loss and LAE and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.
Net income (loss) excluding the effects of amortization of intangible assets, income (loss) from discontinued operations, realized gains (losses) and unrealized gains (losses) on equity securities, net of tax (core income (loss)) is a non-GAAP measure, which is computed by adding amortization, net of tax, to net income (loss) and subtracting income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, realized gains (losses) on our investment portfolio, net of tax, and unrealized gains (losses) on our equity securities, net of tax, from net income (loss). Amortization expense is related to the amortization of intangible assets acquired, including goodwill, through mergers and therefore the expense does not arise through normal operations. Investment portfolio gains (losses) and unrealized equity security gains (losses) vary independent of our operations. We believe it is useful for investors to evaluate these components separately and in the aggregate when reviewing our performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss). The core income (loss) measure should not be considered a substitute for net loss and does not reflect the overall profitability of our business.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
When we prepare our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with GAAP, we must make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts we report. Certain of these estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex. As a result of that subjectivity and complexity, and because we continuously evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on a variety of factors, actual results could materially differ from our estimates and assumptions if changes in one or more factors require us to make accounting adjustments. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we reassessed our critical accounting policies and estimates as disclosed in Note 2 to the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. We have made no material changes or additions with regard to those policies and estimates.
RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Please refer to Note 2 in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of recent accounting standards that may affect us.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION - MARCH 31, 2023 COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2022
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related notes, and in conjunction with the section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Investments
The primary goals of our investment strategy are to preserve capital, maximize after-tax investment income, maintain liquidity and minimize risk. To accomplish our goals, we purchase debt securities in sectors that represent the most attractive relative value, and we maintain a moderate equity exposure. Limiting equity exposure manages risks and helps to preserve capital for two reasons: first, bond market returns are less volatile than stock market returns, and second, should the bond issuer enter bankruptcy liquidation, bondholders generally have a higher priority than equity holders in a bankruptcy proceeding. Our investment strategy is the same for both our personal lines and commercial lines operating segments.
We must comply with applicable state insurance regulations that prescribe the type, quality and concentrations of investments our insurance subsidiaries can make; therefore, our current investment policy limits investment in non-investment-grade fixed maturities and limits total investment amounts in preferred stock, common stock and mortgage notes receivable. We do not invest in derivative securities.
Two outside asset management companies, which have authority and discretion to buy and sell securities for us, manage our investments subject to (i) the guidelines established by our Board of Directors and (ii) the direction of management. The Investment Committee of our Board of Directors reviews and approves our investment policy on a regular basis.
Our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investment portfolio totaled $372,721,000 at March 31, 2023, compared to $340,905,000 at December 31, 2022.

UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
We classify all of our fixed-maturity investments as available-for-sale. Our investments at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 consisted mainly of U.S. government and agency securities, states, municipalities and political subdivisions, mortgage-backed securities and securities of investment-grade corporate issuers. Our equity holdings consisted mainly of securities issued by companies in the financial, utilities and industrial sectors or mutual funds. At March 31, 2023, approximately 79.6% of our fixed maturities were U.S. Treasuries or corporate bonds rated “A” or better, and 20.4% were corporate bonds rated “BBB” or "BB".
Reinsurance
We follow the industry practice of reinsuring a portion of our risks. Reinsurance involves transferring, or "ceding", all or a portion of the risk exposure on policies we write to another insurer, known as a reinsurer. To the extent that our reinsurers are unable to meet the obligations they assume under our reinsurance agreements, we remain primarily liable for the entire insured loss under the policies we write.
Our reinsurance program is designed, utilizing our risk management methodology, to address our exposure to catastrophe losses. According to the Insurance Service Office (ISO), a catastrophe loss is defined as a single unpredictable incident or series of closely related incidents that result in $25,000,000 or more in U.S. industry-wide direct insured losses to property and that affect a significant number of policyholders and insurers (ISO catastrophes). In addition to ISO catastrophes, we also include as catastrophes those events (non-ISO catastrophes), which may include losses, that we believe are, or will be, material to our operations which we define as incidents that result in $1,000,000 or more in losses for multiple policyholders.
During the second quarter of 2022, we placed our reinsurance program for the 2022 hurricane season. We purchased catastrophe excess of loss reinsurance protection up to an exhaustion point of approximately $2,500,000,000 in the aggregate, including coverage related to our former insurance subsidiary, UPC. The treaties reinsure for personal and commercial lines property excess catastrophe losses caused by multiple perils including hurricanes and tropical storms. The agreements became effective as of June 1, 2022, for a one-year term, and incorporate the mandatory coverage required by and placed with the Florida Hurricane Catastrophe Fund (FHCF) and coverage required under the Reinsurance to Assist Policyholders Program (RAP Program). The FHCF and RAP Program covers Florida risks only and we participate at 90%. Under our core catastrophe excess of loss treaty, retention on a first and second event is $16,400,000. During the third quarter, one of our reinsurers participating on the $25,000,000 excess of $20,000,000 layer of the core catastrophe program exercised a contractual right to terminate their participation due to Demotech's downgrade of UPC's Financial Stability Rating. We were unsuccessful in replacing this coverage in the open market so our captive reinsurer, UPC Re, stepped into the $25,000,000 excess of $20,000,000 layer which was subsequently impacted by Hurricane Ian resulting in an additional retained loss of $20,100,000 million. The exhaustion point of IIC's catastrophe reinsurance program is approximately $200,000,000 in the aggregate, with a retention of $3,000,000 per occurrence, covering all perils.
During the third quarter of 2022, the Company's core catastrophe reinsurance program was impacted by Hurricane Ian. As a result, the Company has approximately $508 million of occurrence limit remaining for Ian, all of which is attributable to ACIC only. After reinstatement premiums of approximately $15.4 million, the Company, with its former subsidiary UPC has approximately $993 million of aggregate limit remaining after Ian, based on our estimated ultimate net loss subject to the core catastrophe reinsurance program.
Effective January 1, 2023, we renewed our all other perils (AOP) catastrophe excess of loss agreement. The agreement
provides protection from catastrophe loss events other than named windstorms and earthquakes up to $101,000,000.
During the third quarter of 2022, one of our private reinsurers who held a 100% share of the $15,000,000 in excess of $15,000,000 layer on our all other perils catastrophe excess of loss agreement notified us of their intent to terminate the agreement due to the contractual provision regarding the change in UPC's statutory surplus being greater than 25%. We agreed to a termination and commutation date of September 30, 2022 for this contract. This change will result in approximately $1,300,000 of ceded premium savings that would have otherwise been due in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the Company retaining all the risk for any non-hurricane catastrophe losses up to $30,000,000, excluding any quota share recoveries.

See Note 10 in our Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our reinsurance program.
Unpaid Losses and Loss Adjustments
We generally use the term “loss(es)” to collectively refer to both loss and LAE. We establish reserves for both reported and unreported unpaid losses that have occurred at or before the balance sheet date for amounts we estimate we will be required to pay in the future, including provisions for claims that have been reported but are unpaid at the balance sheet date and for obligations on claims that have been incurred but not reported at the balance sheet date. Our policy is to establish these loss reserves after considering all information known to us at each reporting period. At any given point in time, our loss reserve represents our best estimate of the ultimate settlement and administration costs of our insured claims incurred and unpaid.
Unpaid losses and LAE totaled $748,365,000 and $842,958,000 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Of this total, $727,320,000 and $816,489,000, respectively, is related to our commercial lines operating segment. The remaining $21,045,000 and $26,469,000, respectively, is related to our personal lines operating segment. On a consolidated basis, this balance has decreased from year end as we continue to settle claims related to Hurricane Ian which made landfall in the third quarter of 2022.
Since the process of estimating loss reserves requires significant judgment due to a number of variables, such as fluctuations in inflation, judicial decisions, legislative changes and changes in claims handling procedures, our ultimate liability
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
will likely differ from these estimates. We revise our reserve for unpaid losses as additional information becomes available, and reflect adjustments, if any, in our earnings in the periods in which we determine the adjustments as necessary.
See Note 11 in our Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our losses and loss adjustments.
Inflation
During the fourth quarter of 2021, the United States began experiencing an increase in the rate of inflation. During the first half of 2022, inflation hit 8.6%, its highest level since 1981, impacting all industries. Premium rates charged to policyholders are typically developed several months prior to implementation, using market information available at the time of the filing. While we attempt to charge adequate premium rates to combat increased costs, during periods of high inflation, we may not have included the negative impact to loss and loss adjustment expenses into our projections, resulting in premium rates that may not be sufficient. In addition, we may be limited in our ability to raise premium rates due to regulatory restrictions. As a result of the inflation during 2023, higher loss and loss adjustment expenses have had a negative impact on our results of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
In response to inflation, the Federal Reserve has also increased interest rates which may negatively affect the market value of our investment portfolio and our rate of return on investments. Management monitors and responds to the inflationary pressure and changing interest rate environment for potential long-term material impacts to our investment portfolio and results of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2023 AND 2022
Net income attributable to UIHC for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased $300,452,000, or 905.7%, to net income of $267,280,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from a net loss of $33,172,000 for the same period in 2022. Drivers of net income from continuing operations during the three months ended March 31, 2023 include increased gross premiums earned, decreased loss and LAE driven by decreased non-catastrophe losses, and decreases across policy acquisition costs, operating and underwriting expenses and general and administrative expenses, the details of which are described below. In addition to continuing operations, we recognized income from discontinued operations of $236,913,000, driven by the deconsolidation of UPC.
Revenue
Our gross written premiums increased $44,709,000, or 31.4%, to $187,123,000 for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 from $142,414,000 for the same period in 2022. This increase was driven primarily by an increase in our commercial premiums written, as we focus on transitioning towards a specialty commercial lines underwriter. The breakdown of the quarter-over-quarter changes in both direct written and assumed premiums by state and gross written premium by line of business are shown in the table below.

Expenses
Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased $3,689,000, or 6.1%, to $57,064,000 from $60,753,000 for the same period in 2022. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to a decrease in loss and LAE of $9,903,000. Operating and underwriting expenses also decreased $1,539,000 in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022. This was partially offset by increased policy acquisition costs of $6,664,000 and general and administrative costs of $729,000.

Excluding catastrophe losses and reserve development, our gross underlying loss and LAE ratio for the first quarter of 2023 would have been 11.7%, a decrease of 7.7 points from 19.4% during the first quarter of 2022.
Policy acquisition costs increased by $6,664,000, or 32.8%, to $26,972,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $20,308,000 for the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to a $7,537,000 increase in external management fees incurred related to our commercial lines gross written premium during the first quarter of 2023, driven by increased written premium quarter-over-quarter.
Operating and underwriting expenses decreased by $1,539,000, or 41.5%, to $2,168,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $3,707,000 for the first quarter of 2022, driven by a decrease in investments in technology of $506,000 and a decrease in underwriting expenses of $698,000 year-over-year. Both of these decreases are driven by the change to our personal lines operating segment in 2023.
General and administrative expenses increased by $729,000, or 9.0%, to $8,793,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $8,064,000 for the first quarter of 2022, driven by the an increase in salary related expenses of $861,000 year-over-year.

Personal Lines Operating Segment Results
Pretax earnings attributable to our personal lines operating segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased $9,450,000, or 83.2%, to a pre-tax loss of $1,907,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from a pre-tax loss of $11,357,000 for the same period in 2022. The change in pretax earnings was primarily driven by a decrease in gross written premiums quarter-over-quarter as described below. Expenses decreased quarter-over-quarter, driven by decreased loss & LAE, policy acquisition costs, and operating expenses. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses quarter-over-quarter. The details of the change in these expenses are described below.
Revenue
Our gross written premiums attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased $3,968,000, or 27.5%, to $10,482,000 for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 from $14,450,000 for the same period in 2022. This decrease was driven primarily by a decreae in assumed premiums, driven by the termination of our quota share agreement between our former subsidiary, UPC and IIC effective December 31, 2022.

Loss and LAE attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased by $9,690,000, or 79.4%, to $2,511,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $12,201,000 for the first quarter of 2022. Loss and LAE expense as a percentage of net earned premiums decreased 70.2 points to 29.0% for the first quarter of 2023, compared to 99.2% for the first quarter of 2022. Excluding catastrophe losses and reserve development, our gross underlying loss and LAE ratio for the first quarter of 2023 would have been 19.2%, a decrease of 53.1 points from 72.3% during the first quarter of 2022.
Policy acquisition costs attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased by $1,824,000, or 50.2%, to $1,806,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $3,630,000 for the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to a decrease in reinsurance commissions decreased $2,530,000, driven by the termination of the quota share agreement between our former subsidiary UPC and IIC.
Operating and underwriting expenses attributable to our personal lines operating segment decreased by $559,000, or 22.3%, to $1,948,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $2,507,000 for the first quarter of 2022, due to decreased investments in technology of $251,000 in 2023 and decreased underwriting expenses of $105,000 as the result of the decrease in premiums written described above.
General and administrative expenses attributable to our personal lines operating segment increased by $544,000, or 10.1%, to $5,907,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $5,363,000 for the first quarter of 2022, driven by a $889,000 increase in salary related expenses as a result of lower headcount quarter-over-quarter. This was partially offset by lower costs associated with professional services provided by external vendors such as tax and legal services.

Commercial Lines Operating Segment Results
Pretax earnings attributable to our commercial lines operating segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased $27,337,000, or 236.0%, to pre-tax income of $38,919,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from pre-tax income of $11,582,000 for the same period in 2022. The change in earnings was primarily driven by increased gross written premiums quarter-over-quarter, and decreased operating and underwriting expenses. This was partially offset by increased policy acquisition costs quarter-over-quarter. The details of these changes are described below.
Revenue
Our gross written premiums attributable to our commercial lines operating segment increased $48,677,000, or 38.0%, to $176,641,000 for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 from $127,964,000 for the same period in 2022. This increase was driven primarily by an increase in written premiums in the state of Florida, as we focus on increasing commercial written premiums and transitioning towards a specialty commercial lines underwriter. The breakdown of the commercial lines operating segment quarter-over-quarter changes in both direct written and assumed premiums by state are shown in the table below.

Expenses
Expenses attributable to our commercial lines operating segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased $7,696,000, or 22.5%, to $41,917,000 from $34,221,000 for the same period in 2022. The increase in expenses was primarily due to an increase in policy acquisition costs of $8,488,000 in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022. This was partially offset by a $1,012,000 decrease in policy acquisition costs. The details of these changes can be seen below.

Loss and LAE attributable to our commercial lines operating segment decreased by $213,000, or 1.5%, to $13,901,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $14,114,000 for the first quarter of 2022. Loss and LAE expense as a percentage of net earned premiums decreased 13.4 points to 17.7% for the first quarter of 2022, compared to 31.1% for the first quarter of 2021. Excluding catastrophe losses and reserve development, our gross underlying loss and LAE ratio for the first quarter of 2022 would have been 11.0%, a decrease of 0.9 points from 11.9% during the first quarter of 2022.
Policy acquisition costs attributable to our commercial lines operating segment increased by $8,488,000, or 50.9%, to $25,166,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $16,678,000 for the first quarter of 2022, driven by increases in external management fees of $7,537,000, as a result of increased gross written premiums quarter-over-quarter. In addition ceding commission income related to our quota share reinsurance agreements decreasing $3,506,000, driven by the non-renewal of agreements at the end of 2022. These increases were partially offset by decreased agent commission expenses of $2,363,000.
Operating and underwriting expenses attributable to our commercial lines operating segment decreased by $1,013,000, or 91.3%, to $96,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $1,109,000 for the first quarter of 2022, driven by a $591,000 decrease in underwriting expenses quarter-over-quarter, decreased allocations of expenses for investments in technology of $196,000, and a decrease in expense related to our credit allowance reserve of $208,000.
General and administrative expenses attributable to our commercial lines operating segment increased by $434,000, or 18.7%, to $2,754,000 for the first quarter of 2023 from $2,320,000 for the first quarter of 2022, driven by a $433,000 increase in allocated external professional services costs for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We generate cash through premium collections, reinsurance recoveries, investment income, the sale or maturity of invested assets, the incurrence of debt and the issuance of additional shares of our stock. We use our cash to pay reinsurance premiums, claims and related costs, policy acquisition costs, salaries and employee benefits, other expenses and stockholder dividends, acquire subsidiaries and pay associated costs, as well as to repay debts, repurchase stock and purchase investments.
As a holding company, we do not conduct any business operations of our own and, as a result, we rely on cash dividends or intercompany loans from our management subsidiaries to pay our general and administrative expenses. Insurance regulatory authorities heavily regulate our insurance subsidiaries, including restricting any dividends paid by our insurance subsidiaries and requiring approval of any management fees our insurance subsidiaries pay to our management subsidiaries for services rendered; however, nothing restricts our non-insurance company subsidiaries from paying us dividends other than state corporate laws regarding solvency. Our management subsidiaries pay us dividends primarily using cash from the collection of management fees from our insurance subsidiaries, pursuant to the management agreements in effect between those entities. In accordance with state laws, our insurance subsidiaries may pay dividends or make distributions out of that part of their statutory surplus derived from their net operating profit and their net realized capital gains. The Risk-Based Capital (RBC) guidelines published by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners may further restrict our insurance subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or make distributions if the amount of the intended dividend or distribution would cause their respective surplus as it regards policyholders to fall below minimum RBC guidelines. See Note 15 in our Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company made no capital contributions to its subsidiaries. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company made capital contributions of $8,000,000 each to our former insurance subsidiaries, UPC and FSIC. We may make future contributions of capital to our insurance subsidiaries as circumstances require.
As described in Note 1 in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements above, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within the twelve-month period subsequent to the date that these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are issued. No adjustments have been made that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
Management’s strategic plans include the following:
•Working with the DFS to achieve a fair and equitable solution regarding reinsurance recoverables held by UPC that management believes are due to ACIC;
•Providing additional information to our rating agencies for the affirmation of the Company’s current financial ratings;
•Successfully renewing our catastrophe reinsurance programs for ACIC and IIC effective June 1, 2023; and
•Exploring raising additional capital for UIHC and ACIC, including in the form of surplus note contributions, to strengthen its statutory risk-based capital if necessary.
If the Company is unable to implement these actions, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the necessary amounts of additional capital to continue as a going concern. As of the date of this report we do not have any commitments from any source to provide such additional capital. Even if we are able to secure debt or equity financing, it may be unavailable in the amounts or time when we require. Furthermore, such financing would likely take the form of bank loans, surplus notes, private placement or public offering of debt or equity securities or some combination of these. The issuance of additional equity securities would dilute the stock ownership of current investors while incurring loans, surplus notes or other debt would increase our capital requirements and a possible loss of valuable assets if such obligations were not repaid in accordance with their terms.
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 (in millions)
Operating Activities
The principal cash inflows from our operating activities come from premium collections, reinsurance recoveries and investment income. The principal cash outflows from our operating activities are the result of claims and related costs, reinsurance premiums, policy acquisition costs and salaries and employee benefits. A primary liquidity concern with respect to these cash flows is the risk of large magnitude catastrophe events.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we experienced cash outflows of $104,164,000 compared to cash outflows of $20,893,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Net income for the period increased $62,012,000, exclusive of the impact of the disposition of UPC, driving these inflows. This is offset by the deconsolidation of UPC in the first quarter of 2023. This resulted in changes in our unpaid loss and loss adjustment expenses, net of reinsurance recoverables on paid and unpaid losses, in 2022, as we no longer hold the UPC portion of this liability.
Investing Activities
The principal cash inflows from our investing activities come from repayments of principal, proceeds from maturities and sales of investments. We closely monitor and manage these risks through our comprehensive investment risk management process. The principal cash outflows relate to sales of investments. The primary liquidity concerns with respect to these cash flows are the risk of default by debtors and market disruption. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, net purchases of investments totaled $195,082,000 compared to net sales of investments of $70,134,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022. This was partially offset by the disposition of $232,582,000 of cash held by UPC at the time of receivership.
Financing Activities
The principal cash outflows from our financing activities come from repayments of debt and payments of dividends. The primary liquidity concern with respect to these cash flows is market disruption in the cost and availability of credit. We believe our current capital resources, together with cash provided from our operations, are sufficient to meet currently anticipated working capital requirements. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, no cash was used in financing activities compared to $2,970,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in outflow in 2023 can be attributed to no dividend payment being made in the first quarter of 2023. In addition, no repayments of borrowings were made in 2023 as we no longer hold the debt associated with our former subsidiary, UPC.
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
At March 31, 2023, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or material changes to our contractual obligations during the quarter.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risks, including interest rate risk related to changes in interest rates in our fixed-maturity securities, credit risk related to changes in the financial condition of the issuers of our fixed-maturities and equity price risk related to changes in equity security prices. These risks are disclosed in Part II, Item 7A. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. We had no material changes in our market risk during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. We designed our disclosure controls with the objective of ensuring we accumulate and communicate this information to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on our evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, at the time the original report was filed with the SEC, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Subsequent to that evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below.
Existence of Material Weakness as of March 31, 2023
The Company identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting related to the reporting of the discontinued operations. Specifically, the Company’s controls over the review of significant unusual transactions, including the effects of the transactions on the preparation of the Company's tax provision were not designed effectively. The Company did not have sufficient, experienced accounting resources to effectively review the accounting for and reporting of significant, unusual transactions. As a result of the material weakness, management’s review control did not detect an error in the accounting related to the recording of the discontinued operations and as a result, net income was understated by $6.4 million. The Company restated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to reflect the correction of this error in this Amended Report.
Remediation Plan
Since identifying the material weakness related to management’s review controls related to significant, unusual and complex transactions in the preparation of the Company's financial statements, management has begun remediation of the process and controls in place to measure and record transactions and their related effects to income tax accounting to enhance the effectiveness of the design and operation of those controls. The Company will focus on the accounting and disclosure for unusual and complex transactions such as discontinued operations and will continue to augment existing staff with additional skilled accounting resources and strengthen the review process to improve the design and operation of financial reporting and corresponding internal controls.
These remediation measures require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal control over a sustained period of financial reporting to reaching a determination that the material weakness has been remediated. As we continue to validate and test our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine that additional measures or modifications to the remediation plan are necessary or appropriate.
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) identified in connection with the evaluation of our internal control performed during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except as noted above with respect to the identification of the material weakness.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are involved in routine claims-related legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. We accrue amounts resulting from claims-related legal actions in unpaid losses and loss adjustment expenses during the period that we determine an unfavorable outcome becomes probable and we can estimate the amounts. Management makes revisions to our estimates based on its analysis of subsequent information that we receive regarding various factors, including: (i) per claim information; (ii) company and industry historical loss experience; (iii) judicial decisions and legal developments in the awarding of damages; and (iv) trends in general economic conditions, including the effects of inflation.
At March 31, 2023, the Company is involved in legal proceedings whereby on August 18, 2021, Jacqueline A. Miraglia v. United Insurance Holdings Corp., and United Property & Casualty Insurance Company was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware alleging violations and damages arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, and seeks damages in an unspecified amount. On September 27, 2022, venue was transferred to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division. In November, 2022, the plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint styled Jacqueline A. Miraglia vs. United Insurance Holdings Corp., United Property & Casualty Insurance Company, and Skyway Claims Services, LLC, alleging violations arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967. The Company denies wrongdoing and believes that an unfavorable outcome is neither probable nor estimable.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I. Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, except as set forth below.
We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, and our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. While we are working to remediate the identified material weakness, we cannot assure you that additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies will not occur in the future. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, our stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could harm our business and the trading price of our common stock.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. As disclosed in this Amended Report, in the course of preparing our interim financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which existed as of March 31, 2023. The material weakness was caused by inadequate controls over our tax processes, described in more detail under the heading Part I — Item 4. Controls and Procedures in this Amended Report. We have commenced efforts to remediate the material weakness as described in more detail under the heading Part I — Item 4. Controls and Procedures in this Amended Report. The material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting will not be considered remediated until the controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls operate effectively. If we do not successfully remediate the material weakness, or if other material weaknesses or other deficiencies arise in the future, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results, which could cause our financial results to be materially misstated and require restatement. In such case, we may be unable to maintain compliance with securities law requirements regarding timely filing of periodic reports in addition to applicable stock exchange listing requirements, investors may lose confidence in our financial
UNITED INSURANCE HOLDINGS CORP.
reporting and our stock price may decline as a result. We cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date, or any measures we may take in the future, will be sufficient to remediate the control deficiencies that led to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting or that they will prevent or avoid potential future material weaknesses.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we did not sell any unregistered equity securities or repurchase any of our equity securities.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
